NCT04784715
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as T-DXd, DS-8201a), either alone or in combination with pertuzumab, in treating patients with Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer as a first line of treatment in the metastatic setting.
NCT00003042
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation work in treating patients with stage IIIB breast cancer.
NCT07394946
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether letrozole, a hormone therapy drug, is effective in treating early-stage, hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes in postmenopausal women. The study will also evaluate the safety of taking letrozole for one year before surgery. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Can one year of letrozole eliminate cancer from the underarm (axillary) lymph nodes? Can treatment with letrozole reduce the need for extensive lymph node surgery? How safe and tolerable is long-term letrozole treatment? This is a single-arm study, meaning all participants will receive letrozole. There is no placebo or comparison group. Participants will: Take letrozole 2.5 mg by mouth once daily for one year Attend regular clinic visits for physical exams, blood tests, and imaging studies Undergo surgery after completing treatment Be followed for up to two years to monitor cancer recurrence and survival
NCT06877949
Several studies have shown improved sensitivity of FDG-PET/CT compared with conventional imaging for diagnosing metastatic breast cancer in retrospective and smaller prospective studies. For response monitoring, we expect FDG-PET/CT to detect disease progression earlier than CT in patients treated for metastatic breast cancer, enabling earlier start of second-line therapies. Current knowledge about the potential benefit of FDG-PET/CT for response monitoring of patients with metastatic breast cancer comes from observational studies. Consequently, current evidence is only hypothesis-generating and prospective, randomized trials such as the MONITOR-RCT are needed to corroborate these findings. The MONITOR-RCT clinical trial aims to investigate whether monitoring with FDG-PET/CT can improve survival in patients diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. It is a parallel group comparative randomized trial comparing an experimental monitoring strategy based on FDG-PET/CT with a standard monitoring strategy based on CT. Participating patients should have newly diagnosed metastatic breast cancer and be considered eligible for initiating first-line medical treatment and subsequent regular response monitoring. A total of 420 patients will be included in the study, with recruitment taking place across 11 participating hospital sites in Denmark, Germany, and Italy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can monitoring with FDG-PET/CT compared to conventional CT prolong the overall survival of MBC patients? * Is this-as expected-due to earlier detection of disease progression and earlier initiation of second-line therapies? * Is this accompanied by less need for additional diagnostics, less need for hospitalization, and improved quality of life? Participants will: * Undergo FDG-PET/CT scans at scheduled intervals to monitor disease progression. * Be given standard treatments as part of oncological care, which is informed by the FDG-PET/CT scans * Fill out questionnaires about their quality of life at various time points throughout the study. Objectives are: Primary: To demonstrate superiority in overall survival of response monitoring with FDG-PET/CT in patients with metastatic breast cancer over response monitoring based on CT. Appropriately adapted PERCIST criteria for FDG-PET/CT and the RECIST1.1 criteria for CT will be used. Secondary: To demonstrate superiority in quality of life and exposure to oncologic treatment with FDG-PET/CT and to investigate the cost-effectiveness.
NCT05296317
Patients including of localized breast cancer will require chemotherapy treatment with epirubicin - cyclophosphamide (EC) followed by treatment with docetaxel or paclitaxel. In addition to this chemotherapy, the investigator will prescribe injections of granulocyte growth factors (G-CSF), to stimulate the growth of white blood cells. Patients will be randomized to either a peg-G-CSF arm or a G-CSF arm, prescribed at different times. The aim is to determine whether one of the two treatment regimens best limits the risk of a decrease in white blood cells
NCT07404462
This study aims to investigate the correlation between immune-related factors in the tumor stroma and pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with early breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In addition, the study evaluates the association between immune-related tumor stroma factors and the presence of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in peripheral blood. The study includes serial blood sampling before and after treatment and during follow-up to assess the prognostic value of these biomarkers for disease progression and recurrence.
NCT07419880
RECLAIM: A Phase II, Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Clinical Trial of Cromolyn, TQB2102, and Panpulimab for Re-Challenging Immune-Refractory Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
NCT04644068
This research is designed to determine if experimental treatment with PARP inhibitor, AZD5305, alone, or in combination with anti-cancer agents is safe, tolerable, and has anti-cancer activity in patients with advanced solid tumors.
NCT04806724
Young adult survivors of breast and gynecologic cancer face a number of challenges, including interrupted life plans. As many as two-thirds of these young survivors experience negative effects of cancer and cancer treatment on their reproductive health, including sexual function and ability to have children. These are among the most distressing aspects of life after cancer for young survivors and their partners, and when left unaddressed, lead to poorer mental health and quality of life. Yet, surprisingly, evidence-based programs are not available to help young couples manage this aspect of life after cancer. In this study, we will adapt and evaluate an intervention designed to help young couples cope with and communicate about cancer-related reproductive and sexual health concerns.
NCT07419867
This study is a prospective, open-label, phase II clinical trial, aiming to explore the predictive effect of different specific tracers on the effectiveness of various systemic treatments for breast cancer. The unique feature of this study is that it is a platform study. The research cohort can be updated accordingly as specific tracers for PET/MRI and systemic treatment regimens for breast cancer are updated. The study will be divided into two treatment cohorts: neoadjuvant therapy and salvage therapy. The research cohort will be further subdivided based on specific treatment regimens and specific tracers for PET/MRI. The subjects will undergo one 18F-FDG PET/MRI and specific tracer PET/MRI examination at baseline (before treatment) and after 2 treatment courses. This study is an exploratory phase II clinical trial, and its main purpose is to screen valuable cohorts for subsequent larger-sample randomized controlled III-phase clinical studies.
NCT07197684
The goal of this clinical trial is to is to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided Pecs block with intravenous ketamine versus intravenous ketamine infusion alone in preventing Chronic Post-Surgical Pain (CPSP) in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery. The main question it aims to answer is, How effective is the ketamine and ketamine with pecs block in reducing the frequency of Chronic Post-Surgical Pain after breast cancer surgery
NCT07421479
The aim of this study is to establish organoid cultures, which are three-dimensional in vitro tumor models capable of supporting the long-term ex vivo growth of tumor cells derived from patients with breast carcinoma. These organoids will be used for the isolation of extracellular vesicles (EVs), which are naturally released by cells and have the ability to selectively recognize tumor tissue. Due to these properties, EVs represent promising vectors for the targeted delivery of diagnostic agents, with potential applications in fluorescence-guided surgery.
NCT06127979
The researchers are doing this study to look at changes in Ki67 expression after at least 2 weeks of endocrine therapy in people with ER+/HER2- breast cancer undergoing cancer removal surgery. Participants will receive the endocrine therapy before their surgery. The researchers will look at how changes in Ki67 expression compare between participants who are carriers of the BRCA2 mutation and participants who are noncarriers of the BRCA2 mutation.
NCT07417241
This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled Study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR-A1811 versus pyrotinib plus capecitabine in the treatment of trastuzumab primary-resistant HER2-positive advanced breast cancer.
NCT07418125
CTCs, CTC clusters, and ctDNA may predict treatment response and survival in high-risk breast cancer, including IBC.
NCT06879678
Chemotherapy is a widely used treatment method for cancer patients. However, various side effects may occur depending on the drug used, treatment duration, and dosage. One of these side effects is chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). CIPN is a common complication that negatively affects patients' quality of life due to nerve damage. In particular, taxane-based chemotherapy drugs (e.g., docetaxel and paclitaxel), which are commonly used in the treatment of breast cancer, can lead to peripheral neuropathy. Studies indicate that the incidence of taxane-induced neuropathy ranges between 61% and 92%. While this condition primarily presents with sensory symptoms, it can also affect motor and autonomic nervous system functions in some patients. Currently, pharmacological treatments for preventing CIPN are limited. Aside from duloxetine, no medication has been proven effective. Therefore, non-pharmacological approaches, such as exercise, are considered an important alternative for alleviating neuropathy symptoms. Exercise is emerging as an effective method for preventing and managing peripheral neuropathy during cancer treatment. Research suggests that regular exercise has positive effects on the nervous system and can help reduce neuropathic symptoms, thereby improving patients' quality of life. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of a web-based exercise program on neuropathic symptoms and quality of life in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The study consists of two phases: In the first phase, a web-based exercise program will be developed under the guidance of a physiotherapist to help manage neuropathic symptoms. In the second phase, the effectiveness of this program will be assessed. Data will be collected using the Patient Information Form, Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Assessment Tool (CIPNAT), and the EORTC QLQ-C30 Quality of Life Questionnaire. Evaluations will be conducted before the intervention and at the end of an 8-week period in both the intervention and control groups. This study aims to demonstrate the potential effects of web-based exercise programs in alleviating neuropathic symptoms and improving quality of life in cancer patients.
NCT07416253
This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, phase II interventional study. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either Trastuzumab-rezetecan (4.8 mg/kg Q3W) or T-DXd (5.4 mg/kg Q3W) for 8 neoadjuvant cycles. After completing neoadjuvant treatment, patients will undergo definitive surgery, and tpCR will be assessed from resected specimens. Patients will then be followed up to monitor long-term efficacy (e.g., EFS) and late-onset adverse events. A total of 68 patients (34 per arm) will be enrolled to achieve the study's statistical objectives.
NCT07410676
This Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of EBNK-001 (allogeneic NK cells) given after lymphodepleting cyclophosphamide/fludarabine (CY/FLU) and supported with low-dose IL-15, administered either alone or in combination with pembrolizumab in adults with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. The study will determine a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and explore signals of clinical activity using RECIST-based response criteria.
NCT07319195
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the safety, feasibility, histologic and immunological effects of Mitazalimab, a CD40 agonistic antibody, when administered either alone or in combination with PD-1 inhibition prior to surgical resection. The investigator hypothesizes that preoperative administration of CD40 agonist with or without PD-1 inhibitor intratumorally will demonstrate an acceptable safety profile, will not result in an unplanned delay in surgery, and will lead to increased immune activation. Subjects will receive a single intratumoral dose of CD40 agonist with or without PD-1 inhibitor 7 or more days prior to surgery and will be followed for safety, feasibility, immune, and pathologic responses.
NCT02927912
This phase II trial studies the side effects of intraoperative electron beam radiotherapy boost and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage I-II breast cancer undergoing surgery with reconstruction. Giving a single dose of electron beam radiation to the tumor cavity during the breast surgery before reconstruction may be a better way to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors.
